It likely means there are orphaned permission values in the database which are no longer displayed because the permission definition no longer exists. This can happen, mostly in XF1, when an add-on is uninstalled which doesn't remove any of the permissions that were set.

Under Tools > Rebuild caches, run the "Clean up permissions" tool which should remove any orphaned permission values.

The clean up permissions tool should work, only thing I can suggest is perhaps trying to go back into Administrative and setting a permission and saving, then going back in and setting all back to inherit and saving again. Just in case there's some sort of cache at play here (though I think the clean up permissions tool sorts that).

Only other thing I can suggest is finding out what the node_id of the node is and running this query:

Is exclude_force_threads from an add-on? Is the add-on currently disabled? If so, that permission is still set but it won't be shown in the UI because it's disabled. You could re-enable the add-on and set the permission to inherit to sort the problem.
